That actually falls in line with what i was told. Afghani...pakistani genetics that were suited to (for most of us) very high elevation growing. Maybe like you say they crossed an affy landrace with a paki to tailor it to their fields.

Well you find that in borders and were diff regions cross, the plants tend to be cross polinated , not so much on purpose but polen can travel a good distance. So seeing plants with both characteristics in regions liek that , Morroco, Africa or anywere else diff strains grow in one country near borders isnt uncommon. And as you mentioned , sometimes farmers add new genetics from other regions to add speed , resin ect.

Im subbed to this, looks pretty interesting man

Yeah i am actually thinking about just letting the boys and girls have a big nasty fuckfest once i get a clone off each. Then i can have thousands of seeds and when i have the room grow out a large amount of seedlings to select from. Waiting to pop them until i move though. have very small grow area at th moment.

Hey There Shivaskunk, whatever became of these Afghan seeds?

Just curious would love to know if you completed breeding of clones for seeds. Would love to source some for my medical grow.

Had a buddy bring back a ton of seeds from Afghanistan.
I grew out about 10 and then threw the rest away.
I guess he got them from the south side because they all sucked IMO.
Taste was terrible, smell was terrible, buzz was potent, but who cares. There are a lot of very potent strains readily available that doesn't taste like dried up camel shit.

Thats really disappointing to hear. I just finished a freebie WOS Afghan Kush Special, reminds me I need to do a report for, which was regrettably not cloned.

Yeah, my buddy just finished up a WOS Afghan Kush x Yumboldt.
It isn't bad at all. Sweet taste and hard as rock buds.

I am honestly disappointed I didn't clone this gal. 9 weeks, dripping in trichs, an honest KO stone, with a lovely floral aroma. Not a giant yielder, but for a short veg not bad

Mine is more of the typical floral tastes, almost a lavendar. She is not the most tasty strain, I will concur. I'm not a taste chaser, but I love her effects (at least this single representation) as being a very strong afghan variety. I personally don't mind her taste to be honest, but I can totally understand where people may not like the flora, earthy taste.

I can totally see the hash making reasoning,the trich production was absolutely ludicrous.

I may have built a decent enough relationship with a guy at my dispensary that I have a bundle of afghani landrace are in my future. Very interesting version, smells extremely unique but you can see how it might have influenced old school skunk. The buzz actually hits me a bit like a sativa more than anything. Bud structure isn't rock hard or anything either. Anyway I quite like it (the smoke) even if it isn't the highest bag appeal, the effects are nice. And I'm excited I might have some of these beans to keep with me for the rest of my days. I plan to do some open pollinations in the not that distant future. I wonder if there would be interest in these? I haven't been given any terms of gift, but I will abide by them if there are terms.

No indication of sex yet, but I believe so far I may have one female. Going to flower these out in a couple weeks, just trying to bush them out a bit for clones. Love me a strong afghani

I have a coworker who's brother collected seeds while deployed in Afghanistan, and he gave me five of them. He said the plants they came from were very sticky, so hopefully I will get some phenos worth keeping. I am waiting until spring to start them so I can place them outdoors.
